Linus Torvalds and Bill Gates Meet for the First Time

In a surprising turn of events, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds, the creator of the Linux kernel, recently met for the first time. The historic encounter took place at a dinner hosted by Sysinternals' creator Mark Russinovich.

This rare moment brought together icons from Linux and Windows, with Microsoft’s Dave Cutler also meeting Torvalds for the first time. As Russinovich humorously noted in a LinkedIn post, “No major kernel decisions were made.” https://www.linkedin.com/posts/markrussinovich_i-had-the-thrill-of-a-lifetime-hosting-dinner-activity-7341857033932914691-f5Kw/
